The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2022 by L'Artisan Parfumeur, Soleil de Provence was crafted by perfumer Daphné Bugey to evoke the sun-drenched landscapes of southern France. The fragrance opens with a bright citrus burst from lemon and bergamot, which gives way to the warm, sunny embrace of mimosa and ylang-ylang. A powdery base of benzoin, vanilla, and amber adds depth, grounding the composition in a sense of comfort and nostalgia.
Apply two sprays to pulse points for an all-day wear. The citrus notes are most vibrant in the first hour, so let it settle before heading out. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than filling a room.
